An intermediate level trail that links the top of Trowbridge Mesa to Conveyor Belt on the eastern end. While the upper portion of the trail can be a conformable way to climb up to the Mesa, this trail will be best enjoyed going downhill. The top portion of the trail is complete with fast rolling tread that winds down the ridge and through a small creek valley.

The lower section of the trail erupts into a full jump line complete with large table top jumps, roller gaps and berms.
